Arrival in Guangzhou

We arrived in Guangzhou and was met at the airport by our new Guide, Simon.  We will be staying at the Garden Hotel, a large, beautiful facility in the business district..  We decided to trade rooms with the Morin's, as they really wanted a king size bed.  Their room had a crib, which came in handy, as Kylie fits well.  With Nick on the air mattress and Lilly on the Sofa, this was a good set up for us.
As true to expectation, the beds are rock hard, but the room is spacious and is actually 2 separate rooms, with 2 TVs.  We finally got into our room and in bed, it was after 1 am.

 We met with our guide Sat. morning  and took a walking tour of the area next to the hotel. It is a business area and has quite a few places to eat and shop.  I am still partial to Shamen Island and will miss not staying there this visit to China.  We have enjoyed having time to hang out.  We receive Bobby on Monday afternoon.
